From: Lukas Wunner <lukas@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 93a770b7e16772530196674ffc79bb13fa927dc6 ] struct uart_port contains a cached copy of the Modem Control signals. It is used to skip register writes in uart_update_mctrl() if the new signal state equals the old signal state. It also avoids a register read to obtain the current state of output signals. When a uart_port is registered, uart_configure_port() changes signal state but neglects to keep the cached copy in sync. That may cause a subsequent register write to be incorrectly skipped. Fix it before it trips somebody up. This behavior has been present ever since the serial core was introduced in 2002: https://git.kernel.org/history/history/c/33c0d1b0c3eb So far it was never an issue because the cached copy is initialized to 0 by kzalloc() and when uart_configure_port() is executed, at most DTR has been set by uart_set_options() or sunsu_console_setup(). Therefore, a stable designation seems unnecessary.
